Province of the Queen of the Poles Abroad
Explanation:
Province not Parish - zakony dzielą swoje terytoria na Prowincje. W tym przypadku chodzi najprawdopodobniej o Chrystusowców, zakon działający wśród Polonii Zagranicznej.

Queen - Królowa - odnosi sie do Matki Bożej

Tekst brzmiałby: Reverend Father, you are/were appointed to work with/for the Polish people in the Province of the Queen of the Poles Abroad

Pozrowienia,

Teolog

Chrystusowcy to właściwy trop, ponieważ adresat pisma należy właśnie do Towarzystwa Chrystusowców (= Society of Christ Fathers for Polish Migrants).

Ale podobało mi się kilka propozycji i za wszystkie bardzo dziękuję.

The Queen of American and Canadian Poles


Explanation:
Since they're talking about Poles in USA and Canada only, not all Poles abroad. Or it could be "The Queen of Polish-Americans and Polish-Canadians".
Either version would be OK.
